Apparently lyrics websites will intentionally put mistakes in lyrics to watermark them, and be able to spot if some other site stole their lyrics.

This is one of those hoping to do the almost impossible types of projects. Google and CloudFlare have been trying to do that for years, they still fail at doing that, and since browsers now prevent a lot of attempts at fingerprinting, it will get increasingly hard. Ultimately they are trying to write the ultimate tracking script that is better at its job than Google Analytics.
@tyil @waifu Yeah, it is cute that it already brought my old VPS to it's knees with the IO. I don't need to throw more hardware at my problems. Yet, unlike you, I can actually deal with it without resorting to nuclear options like PoW challenges. But you can't really annoy anyone with Anubis on your git server, because probably nobody but you goes there.

>As a sidenote, I'm already blocking entire ASs.
"I clicked a button on the Internet, and it gave me a list of subnets for a company that I can block, don't know how though. Probably with nginx or HAProxy."

Also it is really funny to me that you first replied to a post that has a 2 minute video of me loading LKML while being cockblocked by Anubis on my phone and you still defend this piece of garbage software shoved into everyone's face by a egoistical dev that apparently begs for sponsors while allegedly making 180K/yr.

Now, go away, click the boats and try to annoy someone else. Maybe you'll get a more satisfactory reaction there.

Holly fuck this is stupid. Yeah, your hatred is definitely justified. Fuck this gay shit.

>RSS never tracked you
You sure about that? How is it that RSS podcasts I used to listen to knew how many people downloaded the episodes? They definitely were tracking something.

>Email never throttled you
The standard technically doesn't, but so much email would go through Gmail, Hotmail (later Outlook) and Yahoo, and they'd have such shitty spam filters, that email not coming from big corporations would effectively get throttled by being sent to spam.

>Blogs never begged for dopamine
Of course they did. This is the stupidest lie, and the reason I felt the need to write this. The majority of blogs were always the territory of attention whores who thought their ideas were important enough for people to read them. I knew a few people who had Wordpress blogs, and they'd share the links with friends and whoever, and had the view counter and everything. The dopamine was back then too, but people hadn't realized it yet. Then after Wordpress and Blogger came the days of Tumblr, which increased the dopamine like crazy, by allowing people to reshare and like posts easier. And eventually that gave way to Twitter as the dopamine hit everyone takes part in.

I guess the thinking goes something like this: having the mic disabled should be the default, but disabling the mic leaves an annoying led turned on, which distracts me.
So while it's good to have an indicator led for your microphone, the light should be reversed.

You can't shout "chicken jockey" in a crowded theater.

@BasedLunatic I think men would do the same thing they do now, be in denial and cope: "nah, that's not gonna happen to me. I mean, sure smoking can cause that, but it's not a guarantee that it happens to everyone. I'll probably luck out".

@flux_the_cat You know what, I had a look. Christine Meister has been around Bethesda since Morrowind days, and the other two since Oblivion. From a few pictures I've found, Angela Browder's looks have been consistent, overweight redhead since forever. Meister and Sawyer got inflicted with the feminist hair. (Meister being more recently infected).

All evidence seem to point to UK being a joke, and Brexit happening much too late.

@LordMordred @kerosene @ChristiJunior @stacksmash @YeetLibs
The only thing that annoys me in this entire story is that it's obvious from a mile away that her mother's trailer trash behavior left Gigi scarred to some degree. But instead of realizing that, some vermin inserted "asexual" in her vocabulary.
She's "ace" as much as I'm the Pope. When, while growing up, the examples of a relationship are random douchebags being horrible to your mother, of fucking course you'll have an aversion to relationships. Big surprise.

@Tadano @YeetLibs @moth_ball
The cope in this thread is stunning. Gigi won't get fired over this. I'd be surprised if she gets a reprimand. JP staff have better things to do than track every single word every talent says on stream. Realistically, only her manager will have noticed, and if he/she is chill enough, they won't even report it further up.

>the increasing yuribaiting
As if the straight male fans don't enjoy the hell out of the yuribait. Bitch please.

>never before have I had an oshi betray me this hard
Pick better oshis, lol. The gremlin energy thing never appealed to me. I found Ame meh, I don't care that Gura left, and Gigi... actually she is quite capable of fully annoying me at times, so I have no skin in this game. But if you guys want to, or think that she'll be kicked out... good luck with that delusion. lol

@flux_the_cat
Ha.. haha... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.... yeah... it was nice knowing TES.
